A beautiful piece of land on the Isle of Barra has sold in an auction for £33,500.
The site is stationed in a position that offers “picturesque” ocean views off Barra.
It was described as a “scenic” area that extends to 0.08 acres and a starting bid of £15,000 was invited.
Today, after 33 offers were put forward, the land was sold for £33,500 to a Glasgow bidder.
The land, which was once a Scottish Water site, has potential for a “number of uses”, subject to consents.
As well as this, the new owners can potentially agree to access for development with the surrounding farm owner.
The opening bid was £15,000, and the auction started on Thursday at 10am and ended at 3pm.
Barra, in the Outer Hebrides, has a population of around 1,174.
This includes the neighbouring island of Vatersay, to which it is connected by a causeway.
Where is it located?
The site is located on the north side of Barra Airport.
Barra Airport offers a number of flights to Glasgow Airport which provides easy access to those who wish to quickly travel to the mainland.
From the main ring road A888, you can travel to Barra Airport, Eoligarry and Sound of Barra Ferry.
Staying on the road until you drive past the airport on the right, it will continue up a hillside where the site can be found on the left.
Bidding for the plot of land on the Isle of Barra was on the Future Property Auctions website.
